Description
The objective of this AGA Research Foundation Pilot Research Award is to provide funds for early career investigators to help establish their research careers or to support projects that represent new directions for established investigators. The intent of the award is to stimulate clinical or translational research in the areas of functional GI and motility disorders by providing time for investigators to obtain new data that can ultimately lead to subsequent grant applications for more substantial funding amounts and durations.
The recipient will be selected based on the following criteria: significance, investigator, innovation, approach, environment, evidence of institutional commitment, relevance to AGA’s mission and the overall likelihood that the project will lead to subsequent, more substantial grants in the areas of functional GI and motility disorders research.
